Introduction Section 1 – Introduction What is Duality? Duality is an evolutionary combination of super analogue console and DAW controller from Solid State Logic. It draws on years of design experience, and incorporates industry standard features from SSL’s range of large format music consoles. Design Concepts Duality combines technology from SSL’s acclaimed music console, the XL 9000 K Series with new design concepts which faithfully recreate the overload characteristics of valve circuitry. It

Introduction DAW Controller Today’s DAWs provide the power and convenience of recording and editing audio, but a keyboard and mouse is not the most intuitive way to access these controls. For most users, finding an integrated solution that answers all of their working needs is strongly desired. Duality achieves this to an extent and quality that has previously been unavailable. Controller Features Summary • Direct access to all major DAW mixing, editing and automation parameters via HUI and MCU

About This Manual About this manual This manual is divided into five main sections, and is designed to provide a comprehensive source of information for Duality console users. The table of contents will help you to familiarise yourself with the basic content of each section. If you are reading this from an electronic version of the manual, use the ‘bookmark’ feature to rapidly locate to virtually any topic. If you have not previously used an SSL console, you are advised to read the Duality over

Console Operator’s Guide An Introduction to Split Mode The Duality channel strip is optimised for working in conjunction with a multichannel DAW as the primary recording medium. Instead of retaining the ‘in-line’ architecture of previous SSL consoles, a new ‘Split Mode’ mode topology has been introduced which provides the equivalent of in-line operation but without the cost and complexity of separate channel and monitor paths. In DAW-based productions, there is no longer the fixed track count li

This provides the equivalent of in- PAD 1 DRV 2nd 3rd IN DRIVE line operation but without the complexity of separate channel and monitor paths.

Console Operator’s Guide At your first introduction to the Duality console, you will immediately see that the channel strip controls are presented in reassuringly familiar manner. The following pages describe each control in detail, with brief coverage of the routing possibilities. See the start of this section for more on signal routing. In the following descriptions, the connectors referred to are on the rear of each channel module, unless stated otherwise. INPUT 48V Channel Input Section HI-

In normal 1 1 4 4 0 RELEASE use, the compressor’s true r.m.s. side chain and over-easy soft ratio function provide a very transparent compression action even with large amounts of gain reduction.

Console Operator’s Guide THRESHOLD – Variable hysteresis is incorporated in the Threshold circuitry. For any given ‘open’ setting, the Expander/Gate will have a lower ‘close’ threshold to prevent ‘hunting’ artifacts. The hysteresis value is automatically increased as the Threshold is lowered. This is very useful in music recording as it allows instruments to decay below the open threshold before gating or expansion takes place. REL/HOLD – This determines the time constant (speed), variable from
